Silence is not
a thing we make; it is something into which we enter. It is always there. All we can make is noise.
- Mother Maribel of Wantage
Perhaps there is something to learn from the noise. Perhaps when we look at the noise with patience and compassion
for ourselves, we can find a way to enter the silence...if only for a moment...this present moment.
Here's a book I read awhile ago that I liked very much...
"Silence: How to Find Peace in a Busy World" by Christina Feldman
From her book...
"As we emerge from the haste and clamor of the world that surrounds us, glimpses of silence startle us into a new state
of wakefulness and sense of wonder."
